Nice Sounds Nice

That's a Stephanie-worthy title, no?


I say Nice sounds nice, because I did not actually get to go. Emily forgot me :( She feels really bad about it, and although I was very upset at first, I think I will forgive her. She just better not forget me when she goes to Provence in 2 weeks, or I may just leave. Apparently her train to Nice went through Provence and it's very scenic!


I did get to see her pictures at least and hear about it, and Monaco where she also went. It's very pretty there! But pretty touristy with a lot of English speakers. Apparently Emily met a few Australians. I wish I could have met them too, it reminds me of New Zealand and now I feel a little homesick.


Here's some pictures:

(1. Grace Kelly's tomb, Cathedrale St-Nicolas, Monaco. 2. The Mediterranean. 3. Monte Carlo Casino)


One thing I do not regret though, is not having to get back home at 2am, which is what Emily did. Apparently her connecting train from Valence to Grenoble hit an animal (perhaps a cow?) and was cancelled. Poor cow. So she waited for 2 buses because the first one did not have enough space and didn't leave till around 1am on Sunday.


Besides all that, life in France is quite relaxing. And the food is très bien! I'm enjoying the nice weather because before I know it it's going to get cold. And pretty soon is Emily's birthday! She's going to be 21. Gosh that seems old. I was made in 2007, so I'm only 3.
There's not much else going on. Emily's busy (mostly) with classes and is still exploring Grenoble. There's another grève on Thursday also. 


Until next time,
Kiki
